[NL100] TPTK vs miniraise, then 1/2 pot bet...

[13_Xerxes]

Villain is a solid 21/11/1.3 (172).

The flop miniraise with an ace on the board is scary fo me, but I got position and TPTK, so I just call.
The turn bet looks like a monster (set, of course, maybe AJ) or a weaker ace. So, I just call again (mistake ? can I fold for 1/2 size bet [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] ).

Of course river is a fold. I don't see AQ or AT bet again...

Is it spew to call the turn, then to fold on a blank river ?
